How I’m spending #BannedBooksWeek… teaching lessons about censorship & book banning. @ibramxk.bsky.social @penamerica.bsky.social @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social

Everyone should read @shelbyvanpelt.bsky.social ‘s Remarkably Bright Creatures. It is so hopeful, and the way the characters are all intertwined, why it’s very much like an octopus’s tentacles being attached to the same octopus body (as most of them are, anyways). Read it and smile. #BookSky 📚💙

Had an amazing time presenting about #BookBans in the United States at the Aurora Public Library in Illinois for #NationalLibraryWeek in front of an engaged, participatory crowd. #BookSky 💙📚 @aaslala.bsky.social @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social @velshibbc.bsky.social @penamerica.bsky.social

I should’ve read this gem when it came out, just finished last week. Thought it was a mystery going into it, but found out it was a somber story about (dis)ability, parenting, relationships. Solid, solid story. #booksky

#booksky 💙📚Just finished this gem of an autobiography. It’s both a triumph & tragedy all rolled into one. Triumphant in how brilliant, compassionate, & intense she is—like when she put Jamie Dimon in his place. But the tragedy is ours bc she’s not leading us. #booksky 📚💙

My 12-year-old understood the assignment.
